Come and study with us Japanese ART of FLOWER in Jerusalem!!
Ikebana brings together nature and humanity. Being a special art with the certain rules governing its form, ikebana at the same time allows us to make our original
expression freely.Nowadays the Japanese art of flower has been extending its range from
home to shop window displays, on stages, and in various venues to
provide us with the beauty and healing powers of plants.
Along
with aesthetic aspect Ikebana also has a spiritual one. It's considered
very important to its practitioners. Silence is a must during practices
of ikebana. It is a time to appreciate things in nature that people
often overlook because of their busy lives. Ikebana can inspire one to
identify with beauty in all art forms.
